UNION STOCK YARDS.
A Joint Stock Company Now
Organized.
The Grounds Bought and Two Hun
dred Thousand Dollars OF
Stock Subscribed.
One of the most inportant steps ever taken

One of the most important steps ever taken
in the interest OF this city was consunatsd
yesterday. It is an interest which Wichita
has been expecting for years and confidently
counting upon as sure. Her location has
warranted the conclusion that Wichita next
west of Kansas City would become the great
cattle and hog market of the west. Here
are iliimitable corn fields, here and beyond
US the grazing grounds of the continent,
here in fact is one principal base Of the sup
ply. Yesterday the matter was made pub
lie, and the incorporation papers sent forward
to Topeka. Fifteen acres of ground has been
secured at the junction of the Missouri Pa
cific, Santa Fe, Rock Island and Midland, CT
in the present ''Yn of the Fit Scott and Santa
Fe. All the roads named touch at that point.
Two hundred thousand dollars have been
subscribed and the stockholders have cleo
ted the directory FOR the first year.

ton, Kentucky, capitalists. The other names
are sufficient guaranty of the solidity and

OUR WATER WORKS.

1t will be remembered by the readers OF
the EAGLE that some months ago when the
water works of this city were purchased by
the American Water Works company, that
their manager had no hesitation in saying
that the company would at All early date
give Wichita the best water furnished any
city in the state. Before making that state
ment he completely took III the situation,
and saw that the purest and best water
cauld be secured here by the company.
By adopting all the modern appliances he
saw that the company could verify his state
ments. The company has since the purchase
given the question sufficient attention to ar
rive at the conclusion that they will draw
their water from the Big Arkansas river and
filter it thoroughly before running it into
their MAINS this it is generally conceded
will give the people of the city all that the
company has promised and all that any one
could ask. One acquainted with the great
Arkansas river will have no disposition to
doubt that when its water is properly filter
ed it i hea 'thful and all that any city cos..d
desire J source of supply being fed by the

ORGANIZATION OF THE WICHITA GER
MAN IMMIGRATION SOCIETY.

Some days ago the EAGLE made mention
of the fact that the Germans of this city
would orgal an inImigra ion society. A
reporter of ,.Ie EAGL- was present at an i'm
promptu meeting b: preferred to defer a
report of the same until the association was
perfected.
On last Friday night a number Of the most
prominent as well as the heaviest capitalists
ameng our German citizens met in the Office
of the Herold and perfected the above asso-
alton known in German as Die Deutche
Geselischaft, electing the following officers:
Fresident-Peter Getto
Vice-President-Frit Schneitzler.
Secretary Gorge Rostner.
Corresponding Secretary and Agent-Jol,n
Hoenscheidt.
Treasurer-John Arp
Librarian-A. Alderman.
Board of Drectors-Jacob Eckert, Aug.
Wagner aud Otto kopp!in.
The object OF this association is, as the
nam9 implies, to induce immigration, but
its main object is to benefit the city, mas
much as the association will use its best en-
deavors to induce immigration from the
States and from Europe to Kansas,
in general: to Sedgwick county, more
generally and TO Wichita in particular. To
this end statistical reports, maps, charts,
climate, soil and thorough and general in
formation will be put in pamphlet form and
sent all over the world justly showing the
superiority of Kansas and Wichita over all
states and all cities in which thriving, go
ahead people should locate.
The association will look up business pros
poets and business locations for proposed
German capitalists to occupy, and to do all
10 their power to not only make it pleasant
and profitable to the investor, but also to
add to the supply and demand of Wichita S
inexhaustable resources for the same.
The move is one in the right direction, and
the names of the officers are a sufficient
guarantee that the Wichita German Immi-
grafton association Will prove one OF the
many of Wichita's worthy enterprises.
